Our Referrals are set up in administration to send a flag to the Referral staff when the doc enters the referral order.

However, there are some Test Orders that the doc wants to generate a flag to the referral staff.

I understand that set up for this in administration is all or nothing - ie: referrals send flag, tests print...........although some posts on CHUG say you can generate a flag for any order that is on admin hold, it doesn't work that way in my system.

My question is this...........can I attach a flag to automatically route when a doc enters a test order.............and only for that specific order. I don't want to route a flag for every test, just specific ones. And I don't want to set the order as a referral.........it is a test.

Thanks for any insignt. Sharon

our GE CPS works from an Admin Hold (flag) vs. In Process (print) perspective.

Would you screen shot your order defaults for tests and referrals and send to me?

I can't figure out why it won't work for me.........it seems like it should.

We set up custom order sets for certain orders so that we can send a flag and print orders.
In the order set the "flag order" is set to admin hold which then sends a flag and then the remaining orders print.

You can do it with something like this

{IF match(orders_after("list"),"72200")>0 then MEL_SEND_FLAG("Flag","hwinston", "Normal", str(._todaysdate), "X-Ray Needed",
PATIENT.LABELNAME + " needs X-ray's done.", "orders", "") else "" endif}

This will look for an order with cpt 72200 and then sends a flag to a specific person with the patients name and when they open the flag, it will take them to the orders page in the patients chart.
